Kala U-Bass Wanderer

The top, sides, back, and neck of the Kala U-Bass Wanderer are crafted from mahogany, as is the headstock, which is fitted with die-cast machine heads. The 16-fret rosewood fingerboard and the bridge are the only exceptions in terms of wood choice. All of the wooden surfaces have a smooth satin finish. The Kala U-Bass Wanderer has a scale length (vibrating string length) of approximately 21" (or 52.8cm) and an overall length of 74.6cm. The premium Kala roundwound strings are guided over a GraphTech Nubone nut to the fingerboard, while the bridge conceals a piezo pickup that can be fine-tuned to the player’s sound requirements using the on-board preamp complete with three-band equaliser. The Kala U-Bass Wanderer also comes with a matching gig bag.

Kala Brand Music Co. is perhaps the world's most recognised ukulele manufacturer. The company was founded by the American Mike Upton in the early 2000s, in his hometown of Petaluma, California. Drawing on his earlier years of living and working in Hawaii, where he developed a deep affinity for the ukulele, Mike's mission was always to create high-quality, yet affordable ukuleles under the Kala brand that would make this instrument accessible to musicians of all backgrounds. This philosophy quickly paid dividends, leading to the rapid growth of Kala's instrument portfolio. The quality and variety of Kala's ukuleles have attracted the attention of many acclaimed artists, including Bakithi Kumalo, Abraham Laboriel Sr., Hutch Hutchinson, Twenty One Pilots, Walk off the Earth, and Eddie Vedder, all of whom are among the proud players of Kala instruments today.
